Question:
How do the HOS Timers/clocks calculate on-duty and off-duty time? <= /p>
Answer:
The timers are separate and are kept separate. The unit itself will alwa= ys show the driver the timer that is closest to 00:00 in the bottom left ha= nd side of the screen.
The reason the timers are kept on their own is because they are actually= different timers, and must be shown as such.
Consider this scenario:
You have 7 hours left on your 70. You jus= t completed a 10 hour break so you have 14 on-duty, 11 driving, and 8 befor= e you need to take a 30 minute break.
You start driving at 05:00 (with no other= on-duty status). You stop driving and go immediately into sleeper berth at= 10:00. You now have 2 hours left on your 70, and this timer is no longer c= ounting down.
7 hours and 59 minutes later, at 17:59, y= ou start driving. At this point you still have 2 hours on your 70, but only= 1 hour and 1 minute left on your 14 hour clock. The timer you need to be c= oncerned with now is your 14, not your 70. The unit will show that you have= 1 hour and 1 minute left to drive.
It is for scenarios such as the one above= that provides the need for separate timers that work, and are shown indivi= dually.
